GLACIER NATIONAL PARK’S “GOING-TO-THE-SUN ROAD” ON FOR ITS LATEST OPENING ON RECORD DUE EXCEPTIONAL SNOW AND PERSISTENT COLD
Electroverse ^ | JULY 9, 2020 | CAP ALLON

Snow clearing crews are still battling through Glacier National Park’s Going-to-the-Sun Road even as the calendar reads the second week of July.

As of today, July 9, Montana’s infamous mountain pass remains closed.

Two factors are responsible: 1) last winter’s above-average snowfall, and 2) persistent cold and terrible wintry conditions throughout the spring/summer of 2020.

...

this year will likely break the current record for the road’s latest opening, which stands as July 13 in 2011.

...

Serving as evidence of how the so-called climate experts can get it spectacularly wrong, let’s recall the predictions made by Montana’s National Park Service (NPS) back in the early 2000s.

For almost two decades the NPS warned the world that glaciers at Glacier National Park would be gone by the year 2020. They even went to the trouble of erecting signs across all of its visitor centers prophesying the 2020 doomsday date.

Embarrassingly for these spineless, bandwagon frauds, that deadline of doom is about to uneventfully pass. And in response, the NPS rather sheepishly pulled all ‘2020 signs’ from its displays after the computer models it relied upon from the early 2000s, which convincingly foretold of unending glacial retreat, turned out to be woefully inaccurate.

In fact, the opposite is occurring.

That’s right alarmists, in a supposedly catastrophically warming world Going-to-the-Sun-Road is about to witness its latest opening on record.

...

And this trend of falling temperatures and increasing snowpack isn’t confined to Montana. No, it’s occurring across the Northern Hemisphere.

Here are pictures of the 2020 plowing operations

It looks like they start plowing April 1, and still had a ton to plow in June... for one 50 mile long road.

Many Glacier Hotel, Swiftcurrent Motor Inn & Cabins, and Rising Sun Motor Inn & Cabins will remain closed for the 2020 Season. If you have a reservation you do not need to take any action – your reservation will be canceled and your refund will be processed.

The roadways accessing the east side of the park will remain closed for the 2020 season which has forced us to suspend our operations.

• Red Bus Tours will not run for the 2020 season.

• Two Medicine General Store will remain closed for the 2020 season.

Snowing in Norway, flooding in all of China, a cooling atmosphere cannot hold moisture as well. China wet season is more July through mid-August, so we wait for news of the dams on the upper reaches. Could have a cascade failure making news in the near future.

If not all melted by then, consider new glaciers.

President Trump should order those signs to be put back up and kept there.

They are excellent evidence for how full of crap the Gaia Worshipers are. Let all visitors see how they’ve been lied to.

Sad to hear about that section being closed. You feel like you are in the Swiss Alps when you are in the Many Glacier area.
